GRINDERS OF CUTLERY.
Disastrous Results of Inhaling an AtmOs-
phere Loaded with Irritating Dust.

Disastrous Results Of Inhaling an AtmOs-
phere Loaded with Irritating Dust.
DIR. Canely. of Shelburne Falls, Mass,
recently read n paper before the Franklin
District Medical society on grinders con-
sumption, being the results of his obser-
walton on the grinders employed by a cut
lery company at that place, numbering,
on an average, forty men and boys for the
past twenty five years. During the ten
years Just ended, twenty-thre grinders
have died with chronic disease of the air
passages, and three are now confined to
the house with similar affections; and five
in whom the disease has made consider
able progress are still at work in the cut
lery. OF all the occupations in which the
workers are compelled 10 inhale an at
mosphere loaded with irritating dust, as
coal mining and iron and metal polishing,
none seems more certain or fatal in its
effects than grinding.
Investigations made at Sheffield, Eng
land, fix the average period at which
grinders can work at thirteen years. The
first symptom which manifests itself is
cough, soon followed by shortness OF
breath upon cXertion. as walking up hill.
During all this time an infiammatory pro-
cess Is going on in the lung, which
results in gangrcnous or puru-
lent condition: the patient having fever,
and often n terrible cough. During this
attack the patient is confined 10 bed from
ten to twenty weeks. After six weeks an
abscess forms in the lung. and, when the
puss is expectorated, improvement begins.
The progress of some cases is exceedingly
slow; some of the patients living ten years
or more, after being compelled To leave the
shop by their cough, most of the time in
chronic invaiidism. and dying a; las; from
the exhaustion dependent upon pulmon
ary disease.
In spite of all treatment, the inevitab,,
tendency OF the disease seems to he IT,
ward fatal termination, and Dr. Caneay
states that he has never seen any recover
les. The picture which is given us in this
Japer is a most distressing one; and 1t
would seem that some attention should
De paid TO the subjec5 by those in power
The improvements which have been made
in unhealthy trades by the substitution Of
Sanitary for unsanitary conditions have
been SO marked that some of them can
certainly be applied TO the reduction Of the

Through the open doors of the sanctuary
may he seen burning hanging lamps.
Gods, with great terrifying heads, appear
at the farther end Of the edifice, surround
ed by mysterious symbols, the floor before
them being strewed with stemless flowers
that diffuse far and wide the fragrance of
jessamines and tuberoses.
Three or four Hindoos are there, on
guard; young men scantily clad in short
cotton drawers, with hair like a girls
falling to their shoulders; they have saw
age aspect, and the white of their eyes re-
sembles enamel. Their faces are hand
some and their cheeks are beardless; but
on their round bosoms grows disgusting
black fur; their appearance is astonishing
and repelling; we might imagine that they
were part woman, part monkey and part
wild beast.
There. although in close proximity to
gods, they talk and laugh as If the divini-
ties were their boon companions. One Of
them takes an armful Of jessamine flow
ers, strung together as a garland, and
crosses the court beneath the roseate
moon. He goes to q small, solitary
chapel, where stands an idol which seems
more ancient than any of the others. 1t
is divinity with six arms, high head
dress and big glass eyes Of ferocious as
pect. He is there alone, a small lamp
that through respect has been lighted in
front of him being his only company.
Without even casting look upon the
god, the youth places his jessamine flow
ers in a dish on the floor. Just as one
would put food before beast.

Improvement of Country Towns.

Some time ago had occasion to call ut.
tention to the shady business transactions
Of number Of syndicates OF sharper5,
whose plan of operations has been to
secure franchises for public improvements
from interior towns and cities. which they
have hawked about in New York city and
sold TO syriicates. These syndicates
would proce ID TO build rickety street car
lines or faulty water works systems with
the sole object in view Of selling the stock
and bonds of the companies. The towns
and cities which have granted such fran
chises without thorough Investigation of
the credit of persons applying for them
have almost invariably been supplied with
faulty systems of public improvements.
This sort of thing has been carried on to
such an extent as to produce a reaction,
and now encouragement has been given to
solid investors to enter upon solid lines OF
work.
An extensive contractor for the coz
struction Of water works remarked: ~
great deal of solid investment is taking
place in the improvement of towns and
cities over the country, where within q
few years it has been the custom to make
such improvements merely for the sale of
stock and bonds. The day for that kind
of wildcat work has gone by. Men with
money have discovered that in the con-
struction of solid and substantial public
Improvement in growing places there is
ample remuneration in legitimate way
Recently have constructed number oil
waterworks systems for syndicates ,f
who have put their money
in these systems for permanent in
and could not be induced to sell
a dollar of the stocks or bonds. In doing
work for this class Of investors l have
found that they are satisfied with nothing
but the best, indicating therein their pur-
pose To make long Investments. In some
instances these syndicates have gone into
towns and cities where faulty public i'm
provements existed, have bought up the
stock of the old concerns. recognized the
and then reconstructed every
thing. This is good work for the entire
country. Cor. New York Tribune

The skill which Mr.. Clay learned in
boyish encounters was Of use to him after
ward, for statesmen in Kentucky were
addicted to fisticuffs. The Hon. James
c. Sprigg, a member of the Kentucky
legislature, and afterward elected to con-
gress, had been very fortunate in such
affairs. He once, when in his cups, com
municated TO Mr.. Clay the secret of his
success. 1t was to advance upon his
enemy with a pleasant expression of
countenance. and, having thus thrown
him off his guard, to strike him 9 heavy
blow in the face, and keep at it until he
was beaten. Messrs. Clay and Sprigg
afterward quarreled, and met by accident
at the hotel, in a room occupied by a
number Ct the members. "As soon,"
says Mr.. Clay, ''as Sprigg, who was evil
IDENTIFY awaiting my arrival, saw me, he
advanced past all these gentlemen toward
me, with pleasant look, without speak
ing. remembered his methods. and
when he got within reach, without word
on either side, l gave him a severe blow
in the face and brought him staggering to
the floor" As often as Mr. Sprigg would
rise, Mr.. Clay would repeat the blow, and
thus easily beat his antagonist Mr..
Clay speaks of this as comic; most Of his
affairs, however, with knife and pistol,
were Of the tragic order.-The Argonaut
